in the lab.
Software engineer by day; hardware builder by night. Documenting Eurorack designs, web experiments, and bench notes. The fails stay in the log, the wins ship to your rack.

PRODUCTION-READY HARDWARE
Conduit PDX-2
A 4HP USB-C Power Delivery supply that runs a whole Eurorack case from a laptop charger: 3A on +12V, 2.2MHz switching, studio-grade silence.
Distrans AR-1
Bridge Eurorack and studio - USB interface, standalone recorder, zero-latency I/O in 6HP
Projects
SOFTWARE & OPEN SOURCE
Lists
Real-time shared lists — groceries, todos, whatever. Share across devices and users, no passwords needed.
Private Share
Easily share text and files across your devices — nothing is stored on the server.
zod4-mock
A TypeScript library that walks a Zod v4 schema and generates plausible mock data for every type, plus a live playground to test schemas in real time.
Notes
ENGINEERING NOTES & EXPERIMENTSVibin, a Multi-Agent Workflow That Actually Holds Together
LLMs are good at individual tasks. Getting them to do multi-step projects coherently is a different problem. Here's the pipeline I built.
zod4-mock: Deterministic Mock Data for Zod v4
A zero-config, schema-driven mock library that generates byte-identical data from a seed, with built-in relational identity across multiple API schemas.
Shipping the Site
Turning a messy functional prototype into a stable place to document the work and sell hardware.
Lists v2 - Offline-First Architecture
Rebuilding the lists app with full offline support, seamless sharing, and passwordless authentication.
Building Distrans AR-1 with AI (0xFEFE)
A talk at 0xFEFE about using AI to design hardware - what actually worked, what exploded, and why structure beat cleverness.
Conduit PDX-1 - Quiet USB-C Power for Eurorack
Building a USB-C powered Eurorack supply that doesn't sound like a swarm of bees - and iterating toward something actually shippable.
